Trump Isn't Trying to Destroy Canada—He's Exposing a Government That Already Did

Here you've got folks who are doing everything they can to get the Canadian public to rally against America.

Mark Carney has a lot to say about what's undemocratic in Canada.Funny how he never seems to be talking about himself.Speaking of which, it's now being reported RCMP are testifying that he may have signed specifically a non -disclosure agreement with Beijing to hide from Parliament.U .S.Ambassador Pete Hoekstra sat down with Radio Canada and it went exactly as one would expect.

But there is an uncomfortable truth in all of this and it's one that we should all take time to consider after watching it.I'm Jasmine Lane, like, share, subscribe, comment your thoughts down below.Give me a follow on other platforms and hype this video as it does help in the algorithm.

At the time where we're victim of a trade war by the U .S.Canada needs to be able to have a relationship with China that is stable, that is based also on agreement that we were able to ratify back in January.

And meanwhile, we're protecting our sectors that are victim of US protectionism.But there is a really big problem with that ideology, which is that victims do not get to set the table.Victims take what they are given, and that framing is very consequential, which is why strong people don't use it, because it's weak, right?You can't negotiate hard on USMCA or KUSMA, which that in and of itself is like the liberalforeign policy in a nutshell.The fact that Canada domestically changed the name to be KUSMA instead of USMCA, which it was named that way because America leads it, America negotiated it, America named it.

Like, think about that, because details as small as the name of this agreement are so subliminal.But when you put them together, they tell a story on their own, don't they?Even though it wasn't your idea, You renamed it so that you felt more equal.It didn't make you more equal, it just made you feel better, I guess, about it not being your idea, and now you're trying to convince people that it was by putting your name in the beginning.Like, what about that as sovereignty?That sounds like a freaking participation trophy.

And all of that stuff really does mean something, because Canada is not a victim to literally anything.except maybe our own government, some would argue.Canada has the world's second largest landmass, the third largest proven oil reserves.We have the largest freshwater supply on the planet, a G7 economy, and a border with the most powerful nation in human history that has made both countries extraordinarily wealthy for generations.That's not a victim at all, but that is a country who keeps electing governments that govern like victims.And again, it goes to show It goes to show that great divide between the conservative ideology and the liberal ideology.

I've had a lot of bad things happen to me in my life that were unfair.But guess what?I'm no victim.I am a victor.And our country could very well be one too.Like, at what point does that narrative stop being a response to what's happening?

And it's actually the reasonthat it keeps happening.

And do you want to know what victims do?

Victims take the very first offer they can from whoever shows up when they're hurting.And China showed up.Funny enough, China always shows up when Western democracies are vulnerable and looking for an alternative.That's no coincidence.

something like three or four times that of Japan and even more multiplied of what we have for the Indians.

Now, I think it's very fair to bring up that, you know, America does billions in trade with China, too, and they're not exactly strangers by any stretch.But there is a very big difference and it is not subtle, and that is that America negotiates with China from a position of strength.I think that was pretty evident by Donald Trump bringing down all of these massive CEOs on his trip.They treat China like a rival that it does business with, whereas Canada...

The agriculture issue is not by any means settled again.It's a temporary reprieve on part of the agricultural exports.And in fact, in the last 10 years that you have been a minister and that the Liberal government has been in power, the Chinese government has used our agriculture and our farmers as a baton to beat Canada with, to coerce us with, over four or five times, I believe.So consistently, this is an issue that you have failed to resolve in the long term.

...treats China Like a victim would.

PRC has roughly the same number of accredited diplomats in Canada as it does in the United States.So given that, is it fair to say that the reason Beijing has such an outsize diplomatic presence in Canada because Beijing sees Canada as a soft target for its foreign interference and transnational repression activities.

Assuming that Chinese diplomats work as efficiently as diplomats of other countries, then one cannot but assume that a large number of those people that we have accredited as diplomats in Canada are engaged in activities which are not part of the legitimate diplomatic activities.

interfered in the 2019 Don Valley North liberal nomination to support Han Dong, who became the liberal candidate and then a liberal MP.Beijing's Vancouver consulate had its footprints all over interference activities in the 2021 election in the lower mainland to defeat conservative candidates, including targeting then MP Kenny Chiu with a mass disinformation campaign.And Joe Tay, the conservative candidate in Don Valley North in the 2025 election, had a bounty placed on him by Beijing, and there's credible evidence that Beijing's Toronto Consulate was involved in intimidation and voter suppression tactics in Don Valley North.The Liberal government has done absolutely nothing to deal with the Toronto Consulate or the Vancouver Consulate.Have they?

No, and I think that, you know, I think what we're looking at here is a very large Chinese Communist Party operation, you know, whether it's the United Front Work Department or otherwise.I mean, if you look at the rank of the Chinese consul general in Vancouver, this person is much higher rank in the communist regime than one would expect for someone who is a consul general in a single North American city, suggesting that their responsibilities far exceed their diplomatic function.

now you even have the Globe and Mail writing that we would not disclose anything in the agreement without their permission and mutually they would do the same.

Going back to this Globe and Mail piece, which was just written a few hours ago.visits this week.He's coming to Ottawa.Anita Anand should tell him that Canada intends to release the police agreement to the public.It is hard to believe the agreement would survive such scrutiny.And that same man has the audacity to lecture Alberta about democracy.

Look, is it helpful to ask these fundamental questions?No, it's not helpful.Of course it's not.Is it the democratic will of Albertans?Did they vote for this in the last provincial election?No, they didn't.

It wasn't on the ballot paper, it wasn't in the mandates or platforms of the governing party and the official opposition.

Protip, don't ever hold somebody to their words or their promises.Unless you're also willing to face the exact same scrutiny yourself, which I will gladly do seeing as how he brought the issue.As Melanie from Saskatchewan wrote, a woman, by the way, of whom I have deep respect for, writes, with China and a new world order?No.Did they vote for a revived industrial carbon pricing regime and carbon markets dressed up as competitiveness?No, they did not.

Did they vote for no pathways, no pipeline as national energy policy?No, they did not.But sure, Mr. Carney, you keep on telling all of us how this isn't democratic.Neither was manufacturing a majority through floor crossing and backroom deals.But Here we are.

Look, Angus Reid had a poll out today.Like 30 to 35 percent, depending on how you phrase the question, would vote to leave.And that's a scary number.The referendum's not until October 19th.Who puts billions on the table to put pipe in the ground with separatism on the ballot?

Yeah, it is an unstable investment environment.And so, you know, thinking about the aims of the MOU, I wonder if it's just really tinkering with the margins and not taking the bold action that's needed.You know, it was notable to me that industry from the oil and gas sector weren't participating in the announcement.You've had a number of leaders from the industry say, you know, the continuance of an industrial price on carbon is going to make Canada uncompetitive when it comes to advancing these projects.So, if the goal of both the federal government and the provincial government was that this MOU would be a bit of a silver bullet or a sop to the separatists, I thinkthat that is mistaken.

While it is true that the pipeline MOU between the federal government and Alberta may not have been enough to quell the rising tensions of citizens who are just so tired of being victims, and it may not have been enough to entice investors, There is one thing, true, that has come out of it.It's a rumor, actually, one that I've heard for many months.I've been to Ottawa several times in even just the last couple of weeks.I feel like I'm going to Ottawa a couple times a month these days.I digress, but I do not like to break rumors, largely because I do not have the ego or prideful chip on my shoulder where I want to be the one who shares something first that just doesn't phase me in the slightest.I just really want to be accurate.

And this rumor, In particular, shocker.I could have told you this months ago, I guess.it.hours after Mark Carney and Premier Smith signed that MOU, agreeing for a path forward for a bitumen pipeline to B .C.'s coast.And he said, and I quote, December of 2025, the MOU also exempted Alberta from Canada's clean electricity regulations, which Guilbault said back then was a serious mistake, according to Global News and his own words.

which set the stage for the Pathways Alliance Carbon Capture and Storage Project, which is a massive waste of money, but alrighty then.

to again show his opposition to this pipeline that seems to be moving forward and also some of the climate change policies that he says are being rolled back.Again, we haven't heard from Gilboa specifically.

This is all breaking news, but I mean, I don't know what to tell you other than activists gonna protest, I guess.But you know, the real headline here is the fact that a decade of climate policy was built on a promise that Ottawa was never going to keep.zero by 2030, then 2050, clean electricity regulations, heat pumps, the emissions cap on oil and gas, the industrial carbon price, consumer carbon price, all of it sold to Canadians as the price to pay.It's non -negotiable and we are good moral citizens if we just comply.And who was it that really paid the cost of this social experiment that Mark Carney and people of his ilk decided to take and use Canadian lives, livelihoods and prosperity as the pawns on their board.Canadians did.

We all did.You remember back in 2017, Justin Trudeau stood in a room and told the LNG industry that there was no business case for LNG.So Germany is now signing a 20 year contract to get our gas routed through the Panama Canal.because they nearly froze after trusting Russian supply.Could you imagine where Canada could have been by now if that moment in 2017 didn't happen, when Germany at that time was already signaling that they needed to get off Russian dependency and that it was a liability?We would be Europe's number one LNG supplier today.

Those contracts would all be Canadian.Those jobs would all be Canadian.That leverage in every trade negotiation would be Canadian.Not as though our government would know how to use it, mind you.The business case didn't disappear.Canada disappeared.

Canada disappeared on purpose by our own government.And why did they do that?Is that because they want to isolate us?I don't know.I can't wrap my head around it.I really can't.

The best case scenario is that it was just completely selfish.The worst case scenario is that it was absolutely evil, because evil aims to prolong suffering and create more suffering.Take a look at some of the statistics coming out of Canada and some of the data.Take a look at the last decade.Would you say that there has been more or less suffering that's been created by this very government?But now they're in a position where they quite literally have to do something because the House of Cards is completely caving in.

And I don't think that that means it's genuine in the slightest.And if you think it does, I encourage you to take a look at Mark Carney and his wife's history.And you might have your mind changed real quickly on that one.But I do think that this all completely destroys the liberal narrative and game plan point by point on net zero and the emissions cap.well, Germany, a country that literally shut down its nuclear plants, just bet on Canada for 20 -year contracts of Canadian LNG.The Europeans, in fact, who designed the green transition, are buying our fossil fuels, again, on 20 -year terms.

Let that sink in for a second.So Canada has the LNG that Europe desperately wants, the oil that the world runs on, the uranium that India needs, and the critical minerals that the entire green economy depends on, and also the actual prosperous economy depends on.We are not a victim of a trade war at all.We are a resource superpower governed by people for the last decade who have spent their time apologizing for it.And the U .S.

ambassador just reminded us exactly what that posturing costs.

So here you've got folks who are doing everything they can to get the Canadian public to rally against America.It just doesn't make any sense.

But do you understand where that frustration is coming from?

Absolutely no.

In Canada because you know a lot of Canadians are saying well we didn't do anything wrong and suddenly Donald Trump you know put tariffs on us.

We put tariffs on everybody in the world.There are two countries that have retaliated against America.

China and Canada.

You said it, I didn't.

So this is my own interpretation.I don't have any inside intel into this train of thought that I have.But ultimately, when Donald Trump says things like, we don't need Canada, we don't need anything from them, we don't need their cars, we don't need their lumber, we don't need their oil.The argument from Canadians is, well, wait a second.Yeah, you do, because you buy all of that stuff from us.I think that what Trump is actually saying is that he knows, obviously, that yes, there's plenty of states that rely on Canada for various things.

There's plenty of ways in which we help each other out.What he is signaling, though, truly, is that if Canada ceased to exist, the United States would figure it out, because they are strong.and they are going to get through it and they are going to develop the things and pass the bills and make sure that stuff happens for them.So when he says that he's not saying, oh, everything that you do is useless, which is why if your counter argument is, well, actually, we send you oil is irrelevant to him because that's not his point.His point is that America is strong and he wants all of our allies to be just as strong.Why?

Because strength in numbers is an undeniable force of power.And for too long, many of these nations have not become strong.They have used the strength of the United States of America to justify weakening ideological policies.And now we have the end result of those.And Pete, Pete Hoekstra, He comes from a country of victors, a culture that has never once been told to be smaller.Americans are absolutely marinated in this belief that they are capable of extraordinary things because nobody has ever spent a decade trying to tell them otherwise.

So when he says, I genuinely don't understand why you're so upset about it.He means it because he comes from a nation where it doesn't matter what gets thrown at you, you will rise above it no matter what.Challenge is welcome and accepted because we will be better off after going through that adversity.Canada, on the other hand, is incredibly different.Canadians are not necessarily different people.at all.

We have a lot of the same values.But our own government has spent years telling our workers, our families, our kids that everything about our existence is shameful and a liability and something that we should hate.Telling our farmers that their practices are unsustainable, that they should cap their production because they shouldn't succeed too much.But they should be taxed harder simply for existing.And they've called all of that progress.They took one of the most resource -rich, geographically blessed countries on Earth.

and governed it like an apology.When you do that long enough, it gets inside of people.And it's not conscious.It is so subconscious how it works.And it will show up in a foreign minister calling Canada a victim in committee.It shows up in a prime minister flying to Beijing because he doesn't believe that we have enough leverage in Washington.

And it shows up in campaign slogans like elbows up that resonate with an entire country because somewhere Somewhere underneath it all, Canadians know that they have been playing so much smaller than they are.And that phrase, as hollow as the policy behind it turned out to be, it did touch something real.They just couldn't pinpoint what the real culprit was, because the real culprit was the same person so many steps ahead of them, using that very real emotion that exists, which was evident in Justin Trudeau's polling numbers before he resigned, but giving the villain a different name.And being a lover of history and politics, here's what I know to be true.It is so much easier to govern people who have forgotten their own strength, people who have been trained and slow -drippedto hate their very existence.

People who believe in themselves and people who know what they're worth don't accept bad deals, not from Washington, not from Beijing, not from Ottawa, especially not from their own government.And I think that the moment Canadians remember what they are actually made of, what we are actually worth, and what we have, which is the polar opposite of anything that would inspire victim mentality, the next question is likely to start a revolution.Why are we settling for this?I'm Jasmine Lane, like, share, subscribe, comment your thoughts down below and hype this video if you have any left.If you want to be a part of the victor mindset, I'll be back with you tomorrow.
